page2html

page2html is a command-line utility designed to convert web pages into static HTML files. It fetches a given URL and saves its content as a local HTML document. This can be useful for archiving web pages, creating offline copies of content, or for processing web pages programmatically.

The tool typically handles the retrieval of the HTML source code from the specified web address. It may also have options to manage associated assets such as CSS files and images, though the exact behavior can vary between different implementations or versions of page2html. Some versions might offer features to download linked resources to make the saved HTML file more self-contained, while others might only save the raw HTML structure.

The primary use case for page2html is to create a static representation of a dynamic or remote web page. This allows users to access the content even without an internet connection or if the original web page becomes unavailable. Developers might use it as part of a larger script to automate web scraping or content analysis tasks. The output is a standard HTML file that can be opened in any web browser.
